One of the oldest BC Ferries retired

Fri Jun 26 11:59:14 CEST 2026 Timsen

The 'Tachek', B.C. Ferries second-oldest ferry alongside the 'Quadra Queen II', completed its final sailing on June 26, 2026, ending 57 years of service. Only the 'Queen of New Westminster', built in 1964, was older than these two ferries. After the retirement, the larger 'Island Nagalis' (IMO: 9900576) took over on the Whaletown (Cortes Island) to Heriot Bay (Quadra Island) route. The 'Tachek' had a vehicle capacity of 26 cars, while the 'Island Nagalis' can take 47 cars. Passenger and crew capacity also increased from 150 to 399. The 'Island Nagalis' had entered service in 2023 and provided service on the route between Campbell River and Quadra Island (Quathiaski Cove). In turn, the 'Island Kwigwis' started servicing the Campbell River to Quadra Island route on June 21, enabling the 'Island Nagalis' to replace the decommissioned 'Tachek'.

Ferry crew saved capsized canoers

Mon Nov 28 11:29:59 CET 2016 Timsen

The two BC ferries "Tachek" and "Baynes Sound Connector" acted quickly when a call came in on Nov 27, 2016, at 11:46 a.m. about two men whose canoe had tipped over in Baynes Sound the east side of Vancouver Island. The crews of the ferries that service inter-island routes, deployed their small rescue vessels to reach the men with the MOB of the "Tachek" reaching the men first, two minutes after receiving the call. The men were transferred to a Coast Guard boat and then to Buckley Bay hospital.
